The battle to decide the fate of Meiji-era swordsmanship has begun! Action, romance, and historical intrigue help make Nobuhiro Watsuki's Rurouni Kenshin, the tale of a wandering swordsman set against the backdrop of the Meiji Restoration, one of the most popular Shonen Jump titles among fans to date. Himura Kenshin, once an assassin (or hitokiri ) of ferocious power, now fights to protect the honor of those in need. A glimpse of the new Japan if the mad ambitions of Shishio Makoto should succeed is revealed when Kenshin arrives in Kyoto and meets him at last...although the epic battle between them will have to wait. Pitted against Shishio's soldiers, Kenshin's reversed-edge sakabatô is broken--can it be reforged? Should it be reforged? For time has once again begun to flow, and violence once more washes over the land. Although Kenshin has abandoned the ways of the hitokiri and has sworn to take life no longer, a new assassin has now arisen--one whose taste for blood and thirst for power knows no bounds…

THE WAR HAS BEGUN… Four months have passed since the war between humans and yokai began, and there seems to be no end in sight.

It’s a good thing Kevin’s boss has concocted a plan in which he and Lilian are essential. Kevin, Lilian, and Iris must travel to Los Angeles, California, and request the aid of Kuroneko, a member of the Four Saints. But wherever these three roam, trouble is sure to follow—and this time, it will take more than shonen manga antics to escape from the many dangerous and dangerously erotic situations they’re bound to run into.
